Barszcz = Borscht?

The description of this soup bears a striking resemblance to that of borscht, and I wouldn't be surprised if they were, in fact, identical. As such, I propose a merge, but I'd like to make sure that it would be reasonable first. --Jitterro 23:29, 3 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

My recollection is a little hazy, coming from a trip I made several years ago, but this sounds like the Polish name for Borshch to me. In Poland (at least in Krakow, which is where I encountered this) there are two kinds of borshch, with the one made from beets being called 'Ukarinian Borshch'. Given that the main Borscht article already mentions several variants, it probably does make sense to merge this is in as just another regional version. —Eldan Goldenberg (User:Eldang) 00:36, 14 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I would seem similar and a local word/variant, and the borscht page lits barszcz as the Polish word for the soup. Epson291 08:19, 8 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Merging

It doesn't look like there's much argument, so I'm going to go ahead and merge these two pages DLPanther 20:40, 30 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
